The project was initiated by the state Panchayat Raj and Rural Development department. Ranjit Kumar Maity, joint secretary of Panchayat Raj and Rural Development department, stated that the total project cost was Rs.38 million of which 40 percent was spent on capacity building activities in the gram panchayats.
